Line 234:

The following names are suggested for selected small mosses. These names are optional; interval size names and step ratio names can be combined with conventional ''xL ys'' names. For example: ''21edo is the soft [[5L 3s]] tuning and its major mosthird is a neutral third of size 342.9 cents.'' (Pattern names are the least important part of TAMNAMS.)

Some of these come from temperament-agnostic mos names ~~coined by [[Igliashon Jones]] and others~~, as ~~well as some of the~~ names (such as ''mosh'') from [[Graham Breed]]'s [[mos naming#Graham_Breed.27s_naming_scheme|mos names]]. Some are named by taking an arbitrary temperament that generates the scale (preferably in the mos's [[proper]] range) and suffixing ''-oid''. These names have been coined so that mosses can be discussed more independently of RTT temperaments (while drawing on an established RTT tradition in the xen community which may help make the names more meaningful to more people).

Some of these come from older temperament-agnostic mos names, such as names (such as ''mosh'') from [[Graham Breed]]'s [[mos naming#Graham_Breed.27s_naming_scheme|mos names]]. Some are named by taking an arbitrary temperament that generates the scale (preferably in the mos's [[proper]] range) and suffixing ''-oid''. These names have been coined so that mosses can be discussed more independently of RTT temperaments (while drawing on an established RTT tradition in the xen community which may help make the names more meaningful to more people).

1L ns names are not given because the generator can be anywhere from the octave to to 1\(n+1) and those scales can better be viewed as subsets of larger mosses, for example [[1L 6s]] as a subset of [[7L 1s]].
